Peptic ulcer and fibre related diseases surveys. File cards

These data cards may have been compiled from the questionnaire survey returns catalogued as WTI/DPB/C/1. They are the same printed format as those in C.1 and include same information, i.e. each card includes the country and hospital, name of patient, date, district, tribe or caste (or religion), gender, age (or if adult), condition or disease, how it was diagnosed, if it was related to surgery or pregnancy. Some cards also include the person's area of occupation (e.g. agriculture, farmer, teacher, clerk). There are letter codes for diet - 'U, X, Y, Z, NK' and initials of diseases 'A, D, GS, H, C, PU, VV, DVT' with other fields for entering more details of the disease where it is varicose veins/deep vein thrombosis or a peptic ulcer.

The cards in each box are arranged by country and each country is sub-divided by hospital.
